Question
we have a 6 mon old spayed female golden who loves to lay down in all the flower beds and chew all the plants and flowers to bits.  is there a way to train her to stay out of the flower beds and not chew up the flowers..

Answer
I really hate this site.  I answered your question last night, but my answer seems to have disappeared.  http://www.poochlovers.com/ works so much better.  

So again.  If you have already tried scolding her when you catch her in the act, ''NO, bad dog!'' in a quiet firm voice when you see her in the bed, then try the sprays.  They may be lawn and garden rather than dog supplies. They should be effective for small areas.  I have never use them.  I just don't try to grow much in the area fenced for the dogs.
